A review by ryanjjung
Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb

adventurous dark medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.5

This book's biggest failing is that it continues building several plots until the last chapter or two and then ends very abruptly. I understand this is a trilogy, but I would have appreciated it if really any aspect of this story had reached any kind of conclusion. I can't imagine reading this book and having to wait two years to pick up the next.
